Patches are fine in this series, however I just want to set the expectations right here. While having that libc-independent goal is fine.
Sometimes we just can not do it, since uclibc or musl
does not have all the features that glibc has and an app might also be using it.
making glibc users not have those features is unfair
given that we have a strong mechanism of overrides in OE, it should be used to this advantage.
